Our unsweetened chocolate 100% pure cacao is a chocolate liquor. We use the 100 as a reference scale of bitter
taste and 100 is the most bitter while a 64 for example would not be as bitter in taste. Unsweetened chocolate is the
most bitter to eat because there is no added sugar.

As far as
ORAC or flavanol count, we can't accurately answer questions regarding levels as we do
not test for these values in our chocolate.

Our couverture chocolates are classified as chocolate
foods and not supplements; therefore, we do not advise on the perceived
level of flavanols or potential health claims because of the legal established FDA guidelines (please see
FDA Code of regulation 163.111 regarding chocolate liquor definition in the link below). There is also great
information in the FDA chapters regarding health claims (see the second link below). We encourage everyone to understand food definitions as set by the FDA so that you can be an informed consumer and not fall prey to unethical advertising claims.
